* I found a problem when you enable Maintenance Mode and the CRON script wp-cron.
php is used after each execution of the command, an execution report is sent
to the email. If CRON runs once a minute, that’s 60 messages an hour or 1440
emails a day !!!
* Messages have the following text:
* { -webkit-box-sizing: border-box; -moz-box-sizing:
border-box; box-sizing: border-box; }
* html, body {
min-height: 100%; }
* body {
background:; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px;
text-align: center;
* }
* #container {
margin: 40px auto; max-width: 600px; padding: 30px; background:
white; box-shadow: 0px 0px 5px 0px # e0dfdf; padding-bottom: 40px; }
* p {
margin: 0 0 20px; }
* .logo {
max-width: 540px; }
* [@media](https://wordpress.org/support/users/media/) screen and (max-width:
630px) {
.logo { max-width: 100%; } }
*
* First
*
Sorry, fixing

* Also it stops CRON jobs from running. You can watch it through the WP Cron plugin

* Hi [@pearlpepper](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pearlpepper/),
* I am not sure about this one. I haven’t had any other reports of this, but other
users probably aren’t doing things at the same level as you are.
* In our main plugin file: wp-custom-admin-interface.php on line 851 it sets out
the condition in which the maintenance mode should run, it looks like this:
* if ($pagenow !== ‘wp-login.php’ && ! current_user_can( ‘manage_options’ ) && !
is_admin() && isset($options[‘wp_custom_admin_interface_enable_maintenance’])&&
$todaysDate < $maintenanceExpiryDate) {
* There’s a condition !is_admin() which prevents it running on admin, and I would
have thought that this would prevent affecting any cron processes. It would be
strange if this would be affecting cron to be honest, so maybe double check that
it’s actually the maintenance mode doing this. I also don’t know about this execution
report you are talking about. I really think in this instance you need a developer
to go through your specific requirements and troubleshoot the code potentially,
or just don’t use our plugin for the maintenance functionality. Our maintenance
functionality was based off other maintenance plugins though so you may run into
the same issue with them!
